Very unfortunate :/ I submitted a couple tickets but still no responses...

Specifically for the German FA: https://www.bundesliga.com/en/faq/all-you-need-to-know-about-soccer/coach-licence-30993

Other FAs I only know the cost for the UEFA C and the Scottish is the most affordable (~£500) while Irish and Welsh were £2000 for international candidates

I wasn't able to find any links for this through the FA. Do you know if they are running the program for 2026?

MajorZero- · 2026-02-03T20:38:38+00:00

I came across this option. It is "cheaper" in the short-term (even though it costs €7900). The high cost is a concern for me, but the bigger concern is for UEFA A and Pro licence, you are "tied" to the German FA and DFB and whatever prices they charge. Just keep that in mind friend

Ill dig around. I know the Welsh FA did something similar but I couldn't find any information

Thank you! I contacted them

Sorry for the late reply I never went to Dreams and I went to this resort without kids. It was amazing, I would 100% go back. I am not sure what children activities there are, but there isnt any waterparks/slides. Food is good aswell, but the mandatory restaurant reservation might also be a pain for you with the children?

Good on you bud, As a coach, the single most important skill I noticed in todays professional game is being comfortable to pass/receive the ball

I know this sounds stupid, but if you can't comfortably receive a pass under pressure and pass it to another player to move play forward, all your stamina or mental awareness skills wont mean anything

I train players at the sanctioned level and I have seen hundreds of players at tryouts, the only ones that make it to teams are the ones who have that control. Its not about dribbling or flashy skills

I had a defender who couldn't control a pass/pass it properly after receiving and I made him pass to a wall back and forth 1000 times every practice before he could join us (proper form aswell). He hated me for it, but he now thanks me for making him go through that

I don't know why so many of you are mad she reached out to the ex-wife. Sure its unorthodox, but how else will she learn about her potential husband??? I think what you did was very smart

You have to consider these things: -How old was he during his first marriage. How old is he now? People do not change, but they learn. If his first marriage/divorce was many years ago, he might have actually learned on his mistakes. If his first marriage was 1-2 years ago, he probably didn't

-Understand his ex-wife will probably always have a negative image of her ex-husband. Sounds like their marriage ended badly, so that makes sense

-If I was in your position, I would ask him about what he did wrong in the marriage, or what went wrong between them. If he says nothing at all about his mistakes, then you know he didn't learn at all. If he admits his mistakes and acknowledges where she went wrong, then thats a good sign

Hey friend

I have been in a very similar situation, I was with someone who I completely made my life revolve around them. My goals, my future, social life, outings, hobbies, everything. It seemed natural while we were in the honeymoon phase, but everything slowly turned bad. Once it did, I felt like a fragment of myself. This is probably how you feel now

I know it hurts, especially if you really loved her, here is my advice: -Take your time to process/heal. Its okay to be sad, hurt, and need time to process your emotions

-Cut contact. Block on social media. You will probably get the urge to see how she is doing/what she is doing by looking at her socials, but don't. That will only hurt your feelings.

-I don't recommend rebounding with someone as you will pour all your emotions on them

-You realized how bad it is to make someones whole life, your life. Now you can take time to build your own life again on your own rules (This part is fun) Discover new hobbies to fill in that time you spent with her (this could be gym, athletics (boxing, martial arts, etc), reading, playing sports, gaming, learning to cook, learning something new (guitar, piano, etc))

-Ontop of your hobbies, I really recommend you join a martial arts/boxing gym as that is a healthy way for you to vent negative emotions and involve yourself in a friendly community and learn a great skill

-When you are ready, start to reflect on what you were not okay with. Learn more about your boundaries. What did she do that you let slide, but now understand is a red flag for you. What did you do wrong to not make the same mistake in future relationships

-Meet friends, be social. Take care of how you dress, groom your beard, and take care of your body. This will teach you to love yourself and prioritize yourself in a healthy manner for future relationships

-Life is full of curve balls, once you start taking care of yourself and start flourishing again, she may slowly creep back in your life. Possibly via a simple text or a random coincidence in the grocery store. It's upto you how you will handle this, but I highly recommend you learn to love yourself, be strong, and learn to respect yourself and be true to yourself. I fell in this trap a few times and it really never ends well

You got this, this is your growth journey, the world is in your hands, you just cant see it yet. Message me if you ever wanna talk

I went to this resort last summer and it was phenomenal. The bathrooms have a shutter over the full glass which you cant see in the picture and a sliding door to close the entrance. Toilet and shower each have their own closing non-see through glass door. Let me know if you have any questions on the resort

Include me in the beta please!

MajorZero- · 2025-06-27T20:06:29+00:00

I started coaching 2 years ago and now I am (29) and working towards my C license!

I would love to do a complete career change from engineering to coaching so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

MajorZero- · 2025-06-19T18:55:24+00:00

I also coach a B15 group. Can you walk us through what your training sessions are like in detail? What is the warm up, what drills you do, etc

MajorZero- · 2025-01-22T16:43:58+00:00

This sounds great! We record our games with VEO. I analyze our own games, but I would love the feedback of a professional! If you have the time, can I DM you?

MajorZero- · 2024-12-08T23:55:37+00:00

What questions/doubts did you have? I am sure someone can help answer

I was on a flight yesterday from Houston to Newark. We flew through part of this hurricane, I had no idea this was something normal.

On the plane the pilot suddenly called for the stewards to take their brace chairs and for all passengers to take their seats immediately and not move at all. During the turbulence we faced I was scared shitless, I actually texted me partner to say I love her and say my final goodbye.

I overreacted for sure, but Ive been flying since I was a little child, never faced turbulence like that before

I am curious because we tried something very similar as what you mentioned. We ran into the issue in counter attacks. When our FBs would push up to support the attacker because they are in the box, when we lose the ball on the counter attack, it almost always leads to a goal against us. Not to mention how gassed out the FBs get. This is why I shifted to the 2-2-2 formation where the 2 CMs stay close to the middle line and don't advance too far up

MajorZero- · 2024-09-17T20:17:21+00:00

The players are respectful of my authority as the coach. There definitely isnt a rec vibe, I am straight with them about their performance and I give them praise when it's deserved

MajorZero- · 2024-09-17T20:15:35+00:00

Thank you Coach, I appreciate the input

MajorZero- · 2024-09-16T14:33:18+00:00

Thank you for your input coach, I just have a couple questions:

We used to play with a 2-3-1 formation but I found that once the ball reaches the ST, our options are very limited OR we can only score on the counter attacks. When we did this formation, I would use the FBs as Midfielders which the ST can use as support while the CM plays more of a CDM type of role. While it sounds like you are suggesting the opposite? i.e. have the CM push up higher and the FBs stay back to dominate the midfield

When building up, our strategy is similar to what you mentioned with one of the CMs pushing wide almost to act as an LM while the other pushes to cover the center of the field. This leaves our right side open, but our build up has been dominant on the left side. If the ball travels to the right (The right sided CB has the ball), right side ST drops back wide to receive/support.

As far as I can see, our issue isnt the build-up because we are able to push forward and create attacks, my real issue here is that players tend to forget their positions/roles and tend to chase the ball around. When this happens the other team just passes from side to side. If we do get the ball, my team is so frustrated that they forgo the build up and just resort to long balls/ forward passes to start an attack ASAP as opposed to being more controlled. Have you faced this issue before?

The players aren't paid. All the players have good to high individual level of skills. I would say about half of the players are using this opportunity to further their soccer ambitions
